5 stars for Joshua at Millies's - we've had a few celebration cookies over the years and with out…read moreyoungest's 18th birthday thought we'd have a joke and get her a cookie again. She always liked the movie Cars so we thought we'd see if they could ice a cookie with Mater the tow truck on - well Joshua was a little taken-a-back by this as he wasn't sure he could do it but he gave it a go and the results were excellent. Everyone was very pleased and it was good to be served by someone prepared to give it a try and not just say "Naa!" Yes you can get cookies cheaper, they aren't a big deal to make yourself for pennies if price is an issue but I'm not sure you can get a huge one with decorations to order ;ike this for love nor money elsewhere.

Pros Millie's is well located, as it's in the Oracle shopping centre in the middle or Reading town…read morecentre. Although it's not a big shop, there's never much of a queue (that I've seen!) and there are usually plenty of cookies and cakes available, as well as promotions and deals to make them more affordable. I absolutely love the chocolate brownies and the chocolate chip cookies! Cons Although the cookies and cakes are yummy, they seem overpriced to me go to any supermarket and you can get at least 4 cookies for the price of two at Millie's! And I always find their deals and promotions a bit of a joke for the same reason

Very well placed sandwich shop, it's located right next to the turnstiles in Reading Rail Station…read more Several pre-assembled sandwiches are ready to go, or if you have a moment, they will pop one into the press. Chicken, Ham & Cheese, Pepperoni and veggie options are availble, as well as some pastries and hot and cold drinks. According to the marketing, sandwiches at Upper Crust have a three hour "life" on them. I can confirm that mine was marked with a time stamp. My Chicken and Bacon was quite fresh and after spending a few minutes in the pressini was absolutely decicious! When I need a quick sandwich for the train, Upper Crust is a great choice.

The quality of the food is great, but it is slightly overpriced, until you get a free bite card which gives a 20% discount! Their baguettes are fresh and tasty, and are perfect to munch over on a long train journey. My favourite is the BLT washed down with a fresh hot chocolate. I would definitely eat here again and I would recommend others to buy a baguette here as well if they can afford it! P.S their cookies are delish!

Everything is made that day, though not in the actual store - they have bakeries regionally and they truck it in on a daily basis. The sandwiches are decent, especially earlier in the day. The bacon and sausage rolls are particularly grabbable for breakfast. The food is tasty and good, but it's just... I don't know. If you're looking for inexpensive eats that you treat like fuel, then Gregg's is the spot. In, out, eat. Note: there are no tables inside or out. It's take-away only.
